Basware, the leading provider of e-invoicing and purchase-to-pay solutions, today announced that Ilari Nurmi, the company’s senior vice president of products and services, has been recognized by Global Finance, a leading trade magazine, in its annual “Who’s Who in Treasury & Cash Management” issue. He was selected for helping companies more effectively manage spend, cash flow and working capital through Basware’s invoice automation solutions and e-invoicing services.

Nurmi has led key Basware initiatives during the past year, including managing an expanded purchase-to-pay and e-invoicing portfolio through new partnerships; introducing new products and services; engaging customers in the adoption of e-invoicing; and expanding Basware’s cloud-based open B2B platform, the Basware Commerce Network. Through the network, which enables one million companies to send and receive e-invoices and e-orders in real-time, Basware is helping companies break down barriers to trade and grow their businesses. This leads to the easier flow of money and connected commerce on a larger scale.

“I am honored to be included among this elite group of people in Treasury & Cash Management, and it highlights the innovative work that we at Basware are doing to help companies achieve financial automation excellence,” said Nurmi. “Through advanced financial automation solutions we are helping them increase efficiency, improve buyer/supplier collaboration and effectively manage working capital and cash flow – which are critical business benefits in an increasingly connected world.”

Nurmi has worked with the Basware team and MasterCard to launch a new electronic payment service. This service, which is the first of its kind in the industry, is changing the way businesses around the world pay and get paid. The combined global B2B payment solution ensures that suppliers are quickly paid upon invoice approval, while extending payment terms for buyers.
